ouaouh.... !

21 pages in the patent filed by DJI Japan for Hasselblad AB !

Same lens with 3 different optical designs, changing once the front group and once the rear group

And in the same patent at page 18 an electronics logical drawing that could perhaps be the joint operation between body and lens VR systems !!!

Exciting stuff. 37mm would make it a 30mm FF equivalent. That would suit me. Particularly if it's priced closer to the 45p.

An X2D with a top screen and stabilisation would be very welcome too.
